Yan Jiedi looked embarrassed and hesitated for a long time without finishing her words. In the end, she was too embarrassed to continue talking.
Although Yan Jiedi said half of what he said, Duan Hongxuan and He Yuyu completely understood that these three uncles clearly saw that Duan Hongxuan asked Yan Jiedi to come over for dinner, and saw that the old Han family had three children at once. He loves to scheme and take advantage of small things.
How can I hold back my temper! This is obviously because I want the second and third children in their family to come over for dinner every day!
Duan Hongxuan, He Yuyu and Qin Huairu looked at each other and wanted to say something, but Yan Jiedi was here again. It was not appropriate to talk about him in front of his daughter, and Yan Jiedi was not good-looking.
Don't tell me, Duan Hongxuan himself doesn't know what's going on, he just can't help but want to complain about the third uncle!
Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Hey! These three uncles really know how to live!"
Duan Hongxuan shook his head at Qin Huairu and signaled her to stop talking. Qin Huairu smiled and stopped saying anything!
Looking at Yan Jiedi who was so ashamed that she buried her face in her hands and did not dare to look up, Duan Hongxuan still suppressed the desire to complain. After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and explained to Yan Jiedi: "Jiedi, look at the children in this courtyard.
, those who I called over for dinner are either not yet in school, or even if they are in school, they are relatively young, and you are the oldest among them!...!"
"Brother Hongxuan, don't tell me. Just pretend that I didn't ask anything just now. I'll tell my dad when I get back. Just say that I'm too embarrassed to ask. If he wants to ask, let him ask you himself!"
Yan Jiedi suddenly interrupted Duan Hongxuan's words.
Duan Hongxuan smiled, looking at the little girl who was too embarrassed to see anyone, and continued to explain: "It's okay, I'll give you a rough idea, just go back and tell your dad!
Studying is a brain-consuming thing, and I just want to have a few more children in our courtyard who can learn well, so I specially call the children here to have dinner with me every day, and I will give them some nutrition.
, I hope these children can produce a few who can be promising in the future!
The reason why I only called you, not second brother or third brother, is because I heard from Yuyu that you were quite serious about studying and your grades were okay.
You also said just now that your academic performance is pretty good. If you work harder and pay more attention, your performance will not be much worse!
You should know what is going on with your second and third brothers. To put it bluntly, they are just hanging around in school, not studying!
You see, I didn’t call Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian from the second uncle’s house, because these two brothers also fooled around all day long.
I hope to help those children in the courtyard who study seriously. If you don’t study hard yourself and don’t take study seriously, then I really don’t have the heart to help them!
If your dad really wants your second brother and third brother to come to my place for dinner every day, then let me see their final grades this semester. If their final grades are really good, then starting from next semester, I
Just invite them to my place for dinner every day!
Just go back and tell your dad!"
Yan Jiedi still didn't raise her head and responded dully: "I know, Brother Hongxuan!"
Seeing that Yan Jiedi was still shy, Duan Hongxuan changed the subject and turned to ask He Yuyu and Yu Haitang: "By the way, speaking of academic performance, Yuyu and Haitang, I have never asked you two about your academic performance?"
As soon as they said this, the two of them immediately became energetic. He Yuyu straightened his back and said very confidently: "Huh! Brother Hongxuan, don't underestimate others. Although I haven't taken the exam yet, I usually do it in class."
Judging from my performance on the exam and the teacher’s questions, I can definitely do well in the final exam!
Begonia should be similar to me!"
Yu Haitang also nodded and confirmed: "Yes, Brother Hongxuan, Yuyu and I will definitely come back with good scores in the final exam!
But I feel like the rain should be a little stronger than me!"
He Yuyu smiled and said modestly: "It's almost the same, we should be almost the same!"
"Then I will wait for your final exam results. If you do well, I will send you a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year!"
"Okay!" He Yuyu said happily: "That's it!
Haitang, come on, we must get Brother Hongxuan’s big red envelope!"
"Yes! Definitely!" Yu Haitang also nodded fiercely and said: "Let Brother Hongxuan bleed out properly then!"
Duan Hongxuan looked at Qin Jingru who looked envious next to him, and asked her: "By the way, Jingru, where did you go to school?"
Qin Jingru said embarrassedly: "I, I just finished the second grade of junior high school, and my parents didn't let me go!"
Qin Huairu said in surprise: "I thought you had finished junior high school!"
Qin Jingru shook her head: "Sister, after you got married, when I was in the second grade of junior high school, people in the village were all gossiping, saying that I was a girl and would get married sooner or later. If I got married, I would be someone else's family, and I would have to pay for it.
Going to school is a waste, why not let me go home and work to earn work points!
He also said that you have never gone to school, so why don’t you marry in the city? Marrying a city person is no better than going to school!
So, in the end, I only went to the second grade of junior high school for one semester, and my parents refused to let me go!"
When Qin Huairu heard this, it was hard to say anything. After all, she was a cousin, not a biological sister. She couldn't care about other people's affairs!
He Yuyu asked Qin Jingru curiously: "Jingru, don't you let your children go to school in the countryside?"
Qin Jingru shook her head: "As long as boys are good at studying, their families will still let them go to school. Most girls just go home to help with work after primary school and no longer go to school!
Because girls will eventually get married. No matter how much the family provides for schooling, she will end up being someone else’s daughter-in-law. It’s not cost-effective!”
Duan Hongxuan shook his head. This is the trend now, and everyone is not rich. What can he do?
As the saying goes, Cang Lin knows etiquette well! But how do you know etiquette? Of course you have to study!
Everyone doesn’t have enough to eat now, so who has the energy to educate their children, let alone a girl who is getting married!
In the countryside, if one more person works, he will get one more work point, and he can get more food! Girls originally have less work points than men, but when they get married in the future, they become members of other people's families. This seems to the country people
, this is the real money-losing product!
Since you have to lose money, of course you should pay as little as possible if you can. Then no one is willing to send girls to study! If you stop studying early and go home to help the family, you can earn more work points for a few more years.
It can reduce some losses for the family!
If you are good-looking, try to find a good family to marry in the future, and you can get more gifts, so you have not raised a daughter in vain!
If you are mediocre in appearance, you can only rely on working hard to earn more work points! But here, it still depends on fate!
When working as a worker in the city, workers of the same level, no matter which factory or place they work in, have little difference in their wages!
But it’s different in the countryside!
It’s the same 1,000 work points. In different places, or even in the same place, but different production teams, the amount of food they can receive after a year may be very different!
For example, after one year's settlement, the total work points of the entire production team add up to 100,000. If you earn 1,000 work points, then you will receive 1%. At the end of the year, you can get 1% of the balance of the entire production team.<
/p>
But the key is, after your production team pays public grain and so on to the country, how much can you save throughout the year to distribute to the entire production team!
The surplus grain available for distribution by your production team is 100,000 kilograms, so the 1,000 work points of 1% can be divided into one thousand kilograms of grain. But if your production team only has 30,000 kilograms of grain available for distribution,
For the same 1% of one thousand work points, you can only get three hundred catties of grain!
That’s basically how it works!
Of course, in the countryside, many places still raise fish, cattle, sheep, pigs, etc., but the algorithm is the same!
Therefore, some villages are slightly better off, and some villages are very poor. This is the reason why the income of the same labor varies greatly in different regions due to different materials that can be harvested!
In addition, there are natural disasters from time to time. In this era, rural water conservancy facilities are still relatively backward, and they all rely on God to provide food. You can imagine how much income farmers can earn throughout the year!
Moreover, since the country was first founded, the entire country was relatively poor and backward. In order to develop, the country had to focus on developing industry on the basis of poverty and poverty.
For the construction and development of the entire country, in order to catch up with the West, the country is poor and has no money. If the price of agricultural products is high, how much salary must the country pay to workers so that workers can afford to eat?
Therefore, the country had to lower the price of agricultural products to subsidize industry. This was the so-called scissors gap between industry and agriculture. This was also a helpless move at the time!
It was precisely because of the hard life of hundreds of millions of farmers for several years that the industrial construction and development of the entire country was supported! It can be said that the development and construction of the entire country at that time were supported by hundreds of millions of farmers!
Therefore, in this era, farmers’ lives are really hard! This is why country people desperately want to be city dwellers!
Duan Hongxuan shook his head, and then asked Qin Jingru: "Jingru, is your Qinjiagou far from the city?"
Qin Jingru thought for a while and said: "It takes more than an hour to take the bus!"
"What if we ride a bicycle?"
"Riding a bicycle?" Qin Jingru thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I don't know! It should be about the same, right? Buses don't run very fast on the road!
I remembered that when my sister and I came by car, I saw cyclists on the road. By the way, those cyclists were faster than the bus we took!"
Qin Huairu also said: "If you ride a bicycle faster, it only takes an hour!"
Duan Hongxuan nodded: "Then you and Yu Yu learn to ride a bicycle as soon as possible. Then you can ride home and bring some food back home!
After all, your family provided for you to go to junior high school. Although you didn’t finish junior high school, it wasn’t easy!”
When Qin Jingru heard this, her eyes lit up. She thought that she would be riding a bicycle, wearing new clothes, and bringing some food back home. Oh my god, that would be so beautiful!
